Questionnaires are usefull because by being pre-planned, they ensure that both questioner and respondent have something to say to each other. Students
can design questionnaires on any topic that is appropriate. As they do so the teacher can act as resource, helping them in the design process, the results
obtained from questionnaires can then form the basis from written work, discussions, or prepared talks.
6 Simulation and Role-Play
Many students derive great benefits from simulation and role-play. Students stimulate a real life encounter as if they were doing so in the real world, either
as themselves in that meeting or aeroplane. Simulation and role-play can be used to encourage students to improve their skills.
Based on that theories, actually in teaching speaking, there are lots of various activities that can be applied in classroom in order to each student can
be an active participant and drills their competence in speaking. The next theory will be delivered is about teaching method. We will find some
teaching methods in classroom.
2.2.3. Teaching Method
Teaching method is a method used in teaching students and mastering the classroom condition so that teacher can transfer the material to the students.
There are some teaching method developed by experts. And here some teaching method that mostly used in teaching speaking in classroom as cited from Freeman
2000: 1
The Direct Method
14
The direct method just like stated by Diller 1978 has one basic rules. There is no translation is allowed in classroom. In fact, the direct method receives
its name from the fact that meaning is to be convey ed directly in the target language trough the demonstration adn visual aids, with no recourse to the
students’ native language. 2
The Audio-Lingual Method The audio-lingual method has only oral based approach. Charles Fries 1945
explains the audio-lingual method as a method which drills students in the use of grammatical sentence patterns. By teaching using audio-lingual method,
teacher helps students to respond correctly to stimuli trough shaping adn reinforcement. Students could overcome the habit of their native language
and form the new habits required to be English speakers. 3
The Communicative Language Teaching Method Communicative language teaching method as stated by Widdowson 1978
trains students through communicative approach so that they can communicate required more than linguistic competence. It means that
communicative language teaching aims broadly to apply the theoretical prespective of the communicative approach by making communicative
competence the goal of language teaching and by acknowledging the interpendence of language and communication.
4 the Suggestopedia Teaching Method
Lozanov 1991 states that suggestopedia is a teaching method which sets up psychological barries to learning. This method has developed to help students
15
eliminate the feeling that they cannot be successful or the negative association they have toward studying and, thus to help them overcome the barriers to
learning. This teaching method is also called an affective-humanistic approach. The advantage of using this method in teaching speaking is
students can feel enjoy with the transfering material by the teacher because teacher sets the classroom environment becomes cheerful and comfortable
and there will be some lots of fun activity in practicing speaking without making students feel stressed by the treatment given by the teacher.
Among four teaching methods mentioned I will focus on the suggestopedia teachig method. Because this teaching method has a unique
technique and sets up the psychological barrier to learning. Furthermore, we will know this suggestopedia teaching method deeper.
